Karan Johar has been a mentor to a number of star kids, from Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan to Janhvi Kapoor, Ananya Panday and more. Reportedly the Dharma Production head honcho will now be launching Saif Ali Khan’s son Ibrahim Ali Khan. Rumours abound that Karan and Fox Star Studio are launching the star kid in the Hindi remake of a popular Malayam film Hridayam.
As reported by sources to Bollywood Hungama, “It is the best project for Ibrahim’s launch. For some time now, Karan is looking for a suitable launch film for Ibrahim. The character in Hridayam of a brash student maturing into marriage and fatherhood is just right for Ibrahim.”
Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh’s son and Sara Ali Khan’s brother Ibrahim Ali Khan is at present, assisting Karan in Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani. The film stars Alia Bhatt, Ranveer Singh, Dharmendra, Shabana Azmi and Jaya Bachchan. Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani marks Karan Johar’s comeback to direction after his 2016 flick Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.

Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, Aishwarya Rai, Vicky Kaushal, Katrina Kaif, Shahid Kapoor, Mira Rajput and many more were seen in their stylish best.
